WASHINGTON, Aug. 26 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Karen Ignagni, President
and CEO of America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), today released the
following statement on new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau showing
that more than 45 million Americans are uninsured:

"Today's report showing that 45 million Americans are uninsured
highlights a critical social and economic challenge that the nation must
address. While the Census Bureau reports a modest decline in the uninsured
rate, this does not reduce the urgency of the crisis. Over the past two
years, our community has put forth a series of proposals to cover the
uninsured, improve quality, and reduce skyrocketing health care costs. We
need coverage for all Americans, coverage they can afford, and coverage
they can keep."
